Tennessee 2018 Primary Election Results Special Report Tennessee 2018 Primary Election Results Tennessee Chamber of Commerce & Industry’s Morning after Report: 2018 Primary Election On Thursday, August 2, 2018, Tennessee voters went to the polls to elect primary nominees for state and federal offices. For Tennessee’s business community, 2018 is a significant election cycle that will usher in a new era of leadership in Tennessee to the Governor’s office, the Tennessee General Assembly and a number of new congressional members. The Tennessee Chamber has been working to ensure this transition is smooth for business, meeting with candidates and talking to them about important business issues. It is crucially important that our new leaders work to maintain and enhance Tennessee’s business climate with continued focus on workforce development and a strong business policy climate for economic growth. Let’s look at the primary winners and begin to assess the general election matchups. Governor – After a total of eight years in office, term limited Governor Bill Haslam’s retirement spurred a vigorous multi-candidate primary race for both the Democratic and Republican nominations. Both primaries have been highly contested setting new records for campaign spending (over $51 million). Most attention has focused on high profile Republican candidates, who have spent the most and where the available polling data showed a tight race heading into Election Day. In the end political outsider Bill Lee decisively won the Republican nomination over former ECD Commissioner Randy Boyd, U.S. House member Diane Black and TN House Speaker Beth Harwell, respectively. In the Democratic primary former Nashville Mayor Karl Dean captured 75% of the vote and cruised to victory over State Representative Craig Fitzhugh. Now, both primary winners must quickly regroup as the general election is less than 100 days away. U.S. Senate – As expected Congressman Marsha Blackburn (R-Brentwood) and former-Gov. Phil Bredesen (D- Nashville) won their parties respective nominations to replace retiring Senator Bob Corker (R-Chattanooga). Both candidates have a broad swath of supporters statewide, and potentially this race has national implications for control of the U.S. Senate. Current public polling shows the Senate race to be tight; several national outlets are rating it a “toss up”. For the U.S. Senate race we expect a heated battle up until election day in November. We predict that by Labor Day voters will be unable to avoid these candidates as they make their case for the November general election. U.S. Congress Three of the nine Congressional seats were vacated this year, providing a number of open seat opportunities. Tim Burchett (TN-02), John Rose (TN-06) and Mark Green (TN-07) were victorious in the Republican primaries. Each of these Congressional seats are safe Republican with a voting index of R+20 or higher. Historical Note: In east TN Congressman Jimmy Duncan (TN-02, R-Knoxville) is retiring after 30 years in office. He was preceded in the office by his father, John Duncan, Sr. Many have noted next year will be the first year since 1964 that a Duncan has not represented the Knoxville area in Congress. Tennessee Legislature: State Senate & State House Please see chart below for unofficial primary results. The State Legislature has an historic number of retirements this year, generating at least 24 races in the House and 3 in the Senate to fill these seats. If you add in the members who were appointed to fill previous vacancies in the past year and are running now, there will be more than 30 new legislators sworn into office in January 2019. There are also several hotly contested primaries for both Democrat and Republican incumbents across the state. Republicans will retain control of both Chambers in the Legislature in 2019, but this has been one the most interesting primary election seasons in recent memory. Incumbents Rep. Barry Doss, Rep. Tim Wirgau and Senator Reginald Tate were defeated in their reelection efforts. Background: Previous Election Year Outcomes Similar to a number of Southern states, Tennessee state and federal election results have almost entirely trended Republican since 1994. Democrats are predicting better performance in 2018, touting an energized base, strong and unified campaign message and increased candidates fielded in a number of contests. Looking at recent primary turnout it is difficult to predict what impact this will have in Tennessee’s November election results. Below is a chart that shows political party performance in Tennessee.

Please note that these are unofficial results complied from the best sources available. Tennessee does not have run-offs in state and federal elections.

    <BillNo> <Sponsor> SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION 517 By Gilmore A RESOLUTION to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the passage of Public Chapter 95 of 1921. WHEREAS, on April 5, 1921, Governor Alfred A. Taylor signed into law Senate Bill 737, which became Public Chapter 95 of 1921, a law that gave the women of Tennessee the right to hold public office; and WHEREAS, less than thirty years earlier, on April 29, 1893, the Tennessee Supreme Court had declared in State ex rel. v. Davidson, 92 Tenn 531; 22 S.W. 203, that "By the English or common law, no woman, under the dignity of a queen, could take part in the government of the State, and they could hold no office except parish office…"; and WHEREAS, the Tennessee Supreme Court further stated that "Although a woman may be a citizen, she is not entitled, by virtue of her citizenship, to take any part in the government, either as a voter or as an officer, independent of legislation conferring such rights upon her…. It follows that unless there is some constitutional or legislative provision enabling her to hold office, she is not eligible to the same"; and WHEREAS, in short, such ruling declared that although a woman was a citizen of the State, she had no right to vote or hold any elected office; and WHEREAS, on April 17, 1919, Governor A. H. Roberts signed into law Public Chapter 139 of 1919, "AN ACT granting women the right to vote for electors of President and Vice President of the United States, and for municipal officers"; under this law, women in Tennessee could now vote in most elections, but the bar to holding public office remained; and WHEREAS, in August 1920, Tennessee became the thirty-sixth and final state necessary to ratify the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution; women throughout the SJR0517 006838 - 1 - United States were then able to vote in the November 1920 presidential election, but women in Tennessee still had no legal right to hold public office; and WHEREAS, in a special election held in January 1921 to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Senator J.

  • S/L Sign on Letter Re: Rescue Plan State/Local
    February 17, 2021 U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Members of Congress: As elected leaders representing communities across our nation, we are writing to urge you to take immediate action on comprehensive coronavirus relief legislation, including desperately needed funding for states, counties, cities, and schools, and an increase in states’ federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP). President Biden’s ambitious $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan will go a long way towards alleviating the significant financial strain COVID-19 has placed on our states, counties, cities, and schools, and the pocketbooks of working families. Working people have been on the frontlines of this pandemic for nearly a year and have continued to do their jobs during this difficult time. Dedicated public servants are still leaving their homes to ensure Americans continue to receive the essential services they rely upon: teachers and education workers are doing their best to provide quality education and keep their students safe, janitors are still keeping parks and public buildings clean, while healthcare providers are continuing to care for the sick. Meanwhile, it has been ten months since Congress passed the CARES Act Coronavirus Relief Fund to support these frontline workers and the essential services they provide. Without significant economic assistance from the federal government, many of these currently-middle class working families are at risk of falling into poverty through no fault of their own. It is a painful irony that while many have rightly called these essential workers heroes, our country has failed to truly respect them with a promise to protect them and pay them throughout the crisis.
